Arielle has loved telling stories for longer than she can remember – and for over a decade, she’s been doing that through the creation of compelling location-based experiences all over the world. With experience in management, creative design, development, and production, her projects
to-date include theme parks, zoos, hotels, brand centers, aquariums, museums, retail, dining, and other attractions.

Arielle has participated with and overseen design and production teams from blue sky through opening day, managing projects with the most minimal of budgets, up to those with multi-million dollar capital expenditures – among her most notable employers and clients are Walt Disney Imagineering, Google, Universal Creative, Scenario, and currently Thinkwell Group, where she is a Director of Project Development.

With a background in interior design, a keen attention to detail, and a knack for business, Arielle brings a solid mix of right- and left-brain thinking to her projects, able to walk the tightrope of creative excellence while maintaining strict budgets and schedules.

If you’ve met Arielle at a networking function or heard her speak at a conference, you know she loves people – and that love of people is reflected in her approach to guiding teams and motivating groups towards a shared vision. When not building the newest guest experience, you can usually find Arielle immersing herself in the worlds she builds, be that through visiting local theme parks, enjoying a good film or book, or designing costumes and crafts.

Arielle holds a BFA in interior design from the Savannah College of Art & Design and in addition to her work as a producer, she is an NCIDQ-licensed interior designer.
